Can you use airplay with LG tv?
Hi, I have a 55" 3D LG smart tv. And I was wondering if its possible to have the display off my ipad or iPhone on the tv? I know it's possible to do it when watching YouTube videos but I wanted the whole ipad screen on there. Any suggestions?
Some people have had success with it by downloading the LG TV Remote App from the app store and then changing the SmartShare settings to allow the Ipad to share with the TV. Some folks are having no problems with that… And other folks are completely unable to get it to work.
Apparently - IOS has some quirks about it that prevent perfect sharing a lot of the time. Check out AVSforum for a similar question.solution here:

LG has its own app for mobile devices to be used with LG smart devices. As for displaying the whole screen with Apple Devices (Airplay), you need to have an Apple TV which is only $100 bucks. No matter how smart your TV is, Airplay is Apple technology and only Apple devices or Apple-enabled devices, like certain A/V receivers, can do Airplay. So far, I don't believe any HDTV has Airplay built-in. So no, it is not possible to do it without an Apple TV. And only then will be able to throw certain things like photos, videos, and music to your tv. With a Macbook laptop you will be able to use your tv as a wireless monitor if you have an Apple Tv.
